5 Acceptance Rules

5.1 Composition of the sampling batch

5.1.1 The castings produced by the unified mold shall constitute a sampling batch.

5.1.2 The bulk weight of each sample lot is 2000 kg of castings after cleaning. The sampling batch can be changed as agreed by both parties.

5.1.3 If the weight of a casting is greater than 2000 kg, a separate sampling batch shall be constituted.

5.1.4 In the event of a change in charge, a change in process premise or a change in the required chemical composition within a certain time period, all castings poured with molten iron continuously melted during that time period, regardless of how short the time period, shall be considered as one sample lot.

5.1.5 When large quantities of molten iron of a uniform grade are continuously melted, the relative mass of each sample lot shall not exceed the weight of castings poured within 2 hours.

5. 1.6 This batch of molten iron castings may be used as a sampling batch when the weight of molten iron is less than 2000 kg.

5.1.7 As agreed by both parties, several batches of castings can also be accepted in a group.

In this case, there should be other quality control methods in the production process, such as rapid chemical composition analysis, metallographic maintenance, nondestructive testing, fracture maintenance, etc., and indeed proved that the nodulation treatment is not chaotic, in line with the process requirements.

Note: For castings that have been heat-treated, the sample batch shall be uniformly sampled, unless the castings in the batch differ significantly in structure. In this case, these significantly dissimilar castings constitute a sample batch.

5.2 Sampling of Chemical Composition Each sampling batch shall be subjected to a chemical composition analysis, and the analysis results shall meet the requirements in Table 1. If the chemical composition is different, allow double the number of samples to be reanalyzed once, the sample is qualified only when it is fully qualified.

The size, geometry and surface roughness of the first castings and important castings should be checked on each piece. The method of spot check shall be agreed by both parties.

5.4 Sampling inspection of appearance quality

The appearance quality of castings should be visually inspected piece by piece.

The mechanical properties of other heat-resistant cast iron at room temperature as well as the metallurgical structure, oxidation resistance and growth resistance of all brands shall be tested according to the premise of ordering. The mechanical properties of room temperature are accepted based on tensile strength. If hardness inspection is required before ordering, it should meet the requirements of Table 2. In order to ensure that the furnace or package number of the casting is the same as that of the test rod, the furnace or package number should be clearly marked on the non-important surface between the sample and the casting.

5.6 Evaluation of mechanical function test results

When inspecting the tensile strength, if the inspection result of the tensile sample fails to meet the requirements, and it is not caused by the reasons listed in 5.7, another two specimens from the unified batch can be taken for reinspection.

If the reinspection results meet the requirements, the material of this batch of castings is still qualified. If the reinspection result still fails to meet the requirements, the batch of castings will be preliminarily judged as the material division. At this time, one of the castings can be taken from the batch, and the body sample can be cut at the position agreed by both parties for mechanical testing. If the test results meet the requirements, the casting material can still be judged to be qualified; If the test result of the body sample still fails to meet the requirements, the ** finally determines that the casting material of this batch is split lattice.

5. 7 Validity of the test

If the test results do not meet the requirements, not because of the quality of the casting itself, but because of one of the following reasons, the test is invalid.

a) Improper loading of the sample on the testing machine or improper operation of the testing machine.

b) There are forging defects on the surface of the sample or improper cutting of the sample (such as the sample size, transition fillet, roughness does not meet the requirements, etc.).

c) Tensile specimen breaks outside the standard distance.

d) There are significant forging defects on the fracture of tensile specimen.

In such cases, a new sample shall be made from the uniform test block or the sample shall be reprocessed from the uniform batch of poured test block for retesting, and the result of the retesting shall replace the result of the invalid test.

Unless there are special requirements, if the castings are supplied as cast and the mechanical function of the castings does not conform to this scale, the supplier may, with the consent of the Demander, heat treat the castings together with the test blocks and then re-test them. If the castings have been heat-treated and the mechanical function is divided, the supplier can re-heat the castings and the test blocks of the castings together. And submit again for acceptance. If the specimen processed from the heat treated test block is qualified, the batch is considered to be repeated heat treated

Part function conforms to this scale.

Repeated heat treatment for reinspection shall not exceed two times.

If there is no clear requirement on the position, size (size, height, convex and concave) and method of the mark, the supplier and the supplier shall agree. However, the marking shall not damage the casting quality. After the castings pass inspection and maintenance, the rust prevention, packaging and storage methods shall be agreed by both parties. There is enough gap between the samples placed in the furnace to ensure good contact between the air in the furnace and the sample surface. Two measuring screws can be installed at both ends of the sample, the dimensions of which are shown in Figure D.2. (If no measuring screws are needed, the end face of the sample can be plated with chromium or nickel…
